the past twenty-five years as brilliant
and acceptable writer, is preparing life
os Henry Ward Beecher for publication
by Hubbard brothers. As Howard s

Plymouth Church, and his most intimate
friend for more than forty years, with a
social intercourse at no time interrupted
and as Howard himself, by reason of his
public life, was brought into frequent
contact with Mr.. Beecher since his early
boyhood, it is obvious that he ought to
have and probably has material at his
hand which is accessible to no other

said to be well under way, and will be
ready for the market early in May. Mr.
HowRr !, by the way, was the author oi
the comprehensive and interesting obit
utHy published in the New York Herald
